Junia and the Importance of Greek Accents

Some (especially those who skipped accents altogether when they first learned Greek) are boung to find them puzzling and wonder what they are useful for.

For one answer, visit Suzanne’s Bookshelf, which has a post on the accenting of the name Junia in Romans 16:7 and how it provides indication that, in the period when accents were being added to Greek manuscripts when they were copied, Junia was understood to be a woman.
